Welcome to the HSD Institute Community! 

Our community is a growing network of individuals interested in and working toward increasing adaptive capacity for themselves and their organizations, groups and communities. Some individuals are tightly connected to HSD Institute, some are moving toward the Institute, and some are just learning about all it has to offer. We welcome a wide range of perspectives, interests, and applications of this work. It is only through creative sharing and inquiry that the field of HSD will continue to grow. In an effort to help individuals find where they fit in the HSD landscape, we have developed two designations:

Curious Friends may be those who: 
  • visit the HSD Institute website
  • are on the mailing list to receive Attractors monthly e-article and other announcements
  • have an interest in HSD, chaos and complexity, systems thinking, or change management
  • attend webinars, buy books and products, or attend HSD related courses and offerings 

We value your questions, feedback and dialogue. Our stance is one of inquiry, and we consider asking questions to be more important and effective than having the “right” answers. Click here to enter the Public Community, where you will be able to participate in ongoing conversations with Glenda Eoyang, Royce Holladay, and other HSD Associates.  You can also read the latest by visiting the HSD Institute blog. 

Connected Partners are those who have completed the HSDP training and received the professional designation of HSDP – Human Systems Dynamics Professional. HSD Associates are lifetime members of the Network. 

Associates have access to a members-only website on the social network, Ning ( www.ning.com).  This provides them with an opportunity to connect with each other, share their insights and learnings about HSD, solve problems, and share professional opportunities. Associates are invited to create communities based on special interests, areas of discipline, projects, and geographic location. Associates collaborate together on projects and products that share their learnings about applications of the principles of HSD. These projects are diverse and rich—from classes and books, to seminars and retreats. All offer a wealth of opportunities for learning and growth.
